THEN go to your 'deleted messages' and repeat the same.
ANY E-MAILS from THAT particular address will be forever blocked! Just don't open any new ones! You could open yourself to 'cookies' that you do not want or worse.
I've got a VERY long list in my 'blocked address' file!
Some internet providers also provide services when a customer is barraged by such junk mail. I've found it harder to do than simply blocking 'em tho,
Good luck!
No, I do not have Outlook Express, and I get many different emails from various people doing scam. If I blocked each one, I'd be blocking them forever. I recognize them immediately and hit the delete button. I never open them. I only open from people that I know.

It's the wisest option.
